Despite all my talk about my successes with menu planning, I have yet to stick with my grocery budget goal of $25 a week. This week, in order to save money, I planned all vegetarian meals. I failed miserably. Regardless of the face I didn’t by any meat, I still spent close to $50. Big sigh.
Maybe next week I’ll have better luck. Here’s this week’s menu:
Sunday: Mushroom tarts, salad with lemon vinaigrette
Monday: Leftovers
Tuesday: Bacon, spinach, and cheese frittata (from this cookbook)
Wednesday: Hospital committee meeting where dinner is provided
Thursday: Mushroom and spinach pasta
Friday: TBD (depends on what I end up doing)
What’s on your menu this week?
